radio waves make you ill?

I can't find it now but there use to be a whole web site about a woman and
Gorsehill Water Tower at Wallesey on Merseyside.

She reckoned that she was being radiated by cellular transmissions from
the site and all sorts of things were happening to her and her home. Some
loon gave her a receiver on which she could hear the regular cellular
'beat' so she had her whole house lined with aluminium foil to protect her
from the waves.

They're not all locked up yet you know........


Are you suggesting that my tinfoil helmet isn't really protecting me?

No, absolutely not. You just keep on with it. It's doing you good. And
have you noticed how you aren't bothered by strangers meeting your eyes
when you're out?

There's this woman in Sussex

technophobia - there's ADSL and ethernet, which don't have any more free
radiation than 50 Hz mains.

WTH is "ray-repelling paint"? Is it conductive? Is it earthed?

(She's forgotten to put foil over her windows)

She should install fake leaded glass panes and earth the 'leading' (if it's
conductive).

It will just be aluminium paint.

We had an extension built on our office. The walls had insulation blocks in the cavity and these had foil on the inside. It is not earthed, but reflects radio signals very well - just try and get a mobile signal in that room!

You can also get thermal glass with metallic sputtering. More efficient than regular K-glass, but OTOH it reduces the light.

I knew a woman at university who said that she could tell by feel
whether a 1.5V battery was fully-charged or flat, just by putting
her finger and thumb over the terminals and feeling for a tingle.
Apparently her party trick was to diagnose faults with people's
circuit boards in electronics by tracing the voltage on different
tracks with her fingers. I don't know whether this was a gimmick or
whether she really could feel considerably lower voltages that
everyone else.

She's an unusual woman, and strangely naive in some ways. Despite
being a trained scientist, she posted on Facebook the other year
that she was having problems getting her fridge to stay cool - and
added, almost as an afterthought, "My fridge doesn't have a door -
will this have anything to do with it?". The replies were very
restrained considering that everyone was thinking "Too bloody right
it will!". It seems that her fridge door fell off (a long story!)
and she never got it repaired, instead partly blocking the airflow
out of the front of the fridge by standing bottles of Coke on the
shelves to act as a "wall". The poor fridge was probably working
24/7 trying to keep cool and pumping that heat out into the room
(where it warmed up the inside of the fridge again!) and had
eventually burnt out the motor. You'd think a scientist might have
known about that...



As I said TNALUY (new mnemonic.)

What about this bit-

"She added: “Schools could use broadband instead of wi-fi, protecting
them from early exposure to radiation.[...]""

I thought broadband was RF as well. Perhaps nobody has told her that
RF doesn't always keep to the wires, so not knowing about this, she
isn't sensitive to it.

The ones in our old house were real lead. It's just they covered a
single pane of glass - you can only really tell by the reflections.

Of course the holes are quite big - they'll let through anything with
lambda ~10cm. 3GHz? Nothing uses that. Even mobile phones aren't over
.... oh. 2.5GHz. Maybe I'd better measure the holes!
